Update process

What's New

• Support for DistributedLogic mode, that enables functioning of the Grenton Tf-Bus modules without the CLU control unit. The DistributedLogicGroupX parameter has been added to each of the 4 objects assigned to the page object (PANELPAGE). This parameter enables pairing sensor devices with actuator devices without the presence of CLU.
• The new DrawBox(x,y,w,h,color) method in the PANEL object, that draws a rectangle with specified color. Method is useful when clearing a change area displayed by the OLED. This avoids clearing the entire screen, and therefore is more efficient.
• The new Calibration feature in the PANELSENSTEMP object, that gives temperature calibration with a constant value from -10 to +10°C.
• The new OnDisplayOn/OnDisplayOff events in the PANEL object, that are generated when the OLED display is turned on and off.
• The new thermostat interface in the PANELPAGE object, that contains:
  • Executing user action after a short press of the upper left "mode" button of Smart Panel. The new functionality generates the OnThermXModeButtonClick event.
  • Displaying user icon in the upper left corner of the OLED using the SetObjectXCustomIcon(bmp) method and the ObjectXCustomIcon feature.
  • The OFF/AUTO/MAN thermostat operating mode was moved before the set temperature.
  • A long press of upper right "next" button or a short press in case just one thermostat is configured switches to the next page.

• The 2-pixels frame between the buttons has been removed. This makes it possible to display a big icon 128x64 (4 x 64x32) without the separation of the black cross in Button mode.
• The behavior of the FreeDraw page has been changed. The DisplayContent() method is automatically executed after a 2-second timeout has expired since the start of drawaing. At the same time a low buzz sound is generated indicating a misconfiguration.
• Fixes in the area of displaying icons / button descriptions.
• Improved button responsiveness for configured icons.
• Fix in the OnProximityDetect event generation.
• The signaling of the lack of receiving the configuration from the CLU has been added. it is one beep after 10s from restarting the device.
